I have followed this thread with interest. I continue to use Finale because I 
am too lazy to learn any other, but I use it quite detachedly. As a 
percussionist I would like to be able to notate a much greater range of nuances 
than the program allows, and then to have the sounds played back.

I don't know why the untuned percussion sounds are locked into such a rigid 
system. Surely it would be possible to have each untuned instrument notated 
anywhere on the staff, say in a "two-octave" range and have those sounds tied 
to the neutral clef. Secondly, the strokes used to play them could also be more 
flexibly notated and played back

But probably NIML (not in my lifetime)…
